                  Graduated compression hosiery is the most effective in preventing edema (Swelling). It also alleviates
                     leg pain and heaviness and contributes to prevent spider veins or varicose veins. It reduces the risk of acute conditions
                     on a daily basis as well as during long distance travel by increasing circulation and the function of the venous system
                     (blood flow returning from the legs back to the heart). When you discover the benefits and comfort of compression stockings
                     you may want to continue wearing them for years after, and your legs will thank you for their improved health.
